"Gezicht op watervallen en Engelse parterre van Rochefoucauld" (View of waterfalls and English parterre of Rochefoucauld) is an etching by the French artist Israel Silvestre, created in 1656. This intricate engraving depicts a formal garden with a series of cascading waterfalls and an English parterre, a type of garden design popular in the 17th century. Silvestre's precise rendering captures the geometric beauty of the garden and showcases his mastery of perspective. This work is now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands.
